Looking For Negotiated Corporate Concorde Fare

I would like to take one last trip on the Concorde. I have found that the "promotional" fares are in the range of $6,500 to $9,500 (give or take a few bucks) .

Ihave heard/read rumors that corporations are getting Concorde tickets for $3,000-$6,000. Perhaps I would be able to afford a trip at this level.

I would appreciate if anyone could either email me privately or post how I might be able to get these more favorable rates. I know most corporate discounts are easy to use, and are often used even by contractors or clients of corporations, etc. So any help would be appreciated.

Just figured out that my Yahoo mail had de-activated because I had not signed in to it, so I have now just re-activated that account. Anything sent earlier would have bounced back, but should be ok now.

I think you'll find that even if you were to offer to pay the full (R) fare, you won't have any availability. I suspect you may have left it too late.

Still wondering if anyone knows about some kind of undocumented Concorde deal?

There are definitely corp negotiated rates with BA for Concorde service. The price level you talk about seems reasonable. Although I won't disclose the fare here (I think it's confidential), we have a very favorable rate for F and J on BA.

Generally, to book those rates, you must book directly through your company's travel department - which most companies will only do for employees on business, clients, and sometimes employees and family on holiday.

If you work at a big company, you might want to inquire with your own travel department.
